The ingredients are great, and I managed to snag it on sale. After applying it at night, my skin feels incredibly soft by morning.
ConsThe texture is a bit thick, and while I hoped it would make my face feel moisturized, it only smooths the surface without addressing the deep dryness. I'll need to apply a hydrating cream first and then layer this on top. While it's affordable enough to use generously, even slathering it on doesn't prevent my skin from feeling tight.
TipTry applying a hydrating cream first, then generously layer this cream on top. You'll wake up to beautifully soft skin the next morning.

ConsUnfortunately, it pills when you apply a second layer... I have dry skin on my U-zone and combination dehydrated skin on my T-zone, but this just sits on top of my skin... Both deep dryness and surface dryness weren't resolved. The effectiveness was just... meh?
TipI found it works wonderfully when applied to feet or body! It feels so refreshing. If you're looking for a light body emulsion, this is great!

ConsIf this product doesn't suit you, you really shouldn't use it. It makes your skin incredibly dry. I used this cream as the last step in my nighttime routine after cleansing and applying toner generously. About 5 minutes after application, my skin would become extremely dry (making my 7-skin toner method seem pointless) and I'd feel a burning sensation, likely due to the dryness. It was really severe. I'm not sure of the exact reason, but it seems like some ingredient in this cream pulls moisture from deep within the skin to create a barrier-like effect on the surface. As a result, the inside of my skin became increasingly dry and red, while the surface moisture evaporated. In the end, the initial feeling of hydration disappeared, leaving only hot and irritated skin. While it might work well for some people, it definitely didn't suit my skin. This effect might be partly due to dry air, but even considering that, the dryness and heat were too extreme. Fortunately, it didn't cause acne or similar issues, so I managed to use it up by applying a cold gel from the fridge after the cream. I won't be repurchasing this. I'm so envious of those whose skin agrees with this product!

During seasonal changes, my face felt a bit tight, so I've been consistently using the Intense version since winter. Since it's not a functional cream, it's great for mixing with ampoules. I often blend it with centella extract and mugwort extract too! On particularly dry days, I apply a thin layer twice. It doesn't flake or leave a greasy feeling, which I love.
ConsWhile it's gentle, for an Intense version, it falls short of fully addressing deep dryness when used alone. Those with extremely dry skin might need to pair it with an ampoule or serum.
TipRecommended to mix with ampoules and extracts! It's not oily, so it's great to apply thoroughly after a pore mask.

Always dealing with a couple of blemishes around the chin. Milia around the forehead and facial contours (caused by improper use of natural cosmetics, but improves with hydration). Overall sensitive skin with redness. Skin condition fluctuates significantly. After long-term use of Si*um for acne, I ended up with dryness and overall sensitive skin instead of acne. (Due to milia) I've been alternating between Sul*oo and Ih*pe Super Vi*al, focusing on nourishment and hydration. However, feeling burdened by the price and excessive oiliness, I tried the affordable and ingredient-friendly More Moist Green Tea Intense cream. Despite its rich texture, it has an artistic application. You can feel the perfect balance of hydration and richness when applying. It's incredibly satisfying to use. Impressive performance even without PEG or silicone oils. There's a slight increase in oiliness after application, but it doesn't feel slippery or sticky, and the finish actually feels quite matte.
ConsThe perfect oil-moisture balance doesn't last beyond 5 minutes after application. Within a minute of fully spreading the cream, oiliness starts to overpower the hydration. It feels like the rich texture is melting and emulsifying with body heat. Within 20 minutes of application, moisture in dry areas is almost completely absorbed or evaporated, leaving only oil behind. Deep dryness starts to set in quickly. After an hour or two, even the oiliness disappears, leaving the skin dry and in need of reapplication. The moisturizing effect has a very short duration. Both the hydration and richness are disappointing.
TipIf you're looking for intense hydration, it's better to use the More Moist Intense Cream as a supplementary product rather than the main moisturizer in your routine. However, it doesn't seem worth layering with other products, so I wouldn't recommend it for dry skin. This cream is more suitable for maintaining normal, healthy skin.

First off, I've been incredibly busy lately, so my apologies for the delayed feedback. To ensure a thorough review, I've been using this product morning and night. 1. Gentle ingredients: My skin was feeling quite heated, so I kept the product in the fridge before use. I was planning to use a face mask, but I was too tired for the whole routine of applying, waiting, and removing. So, I applied this instead, and there was no irritation at all - just a cool sensation! I usually react to new skincare products due to my super sensitive skin, but this one caused no issues. I'm starting to think that green tea extract products generally work well for me. 2. Texture: While it does require a bit of massaging to absorb fully, I really like the cream-type formula. It's not too silky or sticky - just the right consistency. 3. Great value moisturizer: Of course, this depends on how well it suits your skin, but considering the generous amount you get for under $10, it could be an excellent moisturizer if it works for your skin type.
ConsThe hydration power and its longevity are quite disappointing. If this were my only cream option, I'd recommend applying a generous amount of essence or serum first, then a thin layer of this cream, and finishing with an oil. I wouldn't recommend this for those with deep dryness. Even if it feels moisturizing on the surface, if you have dehydrated skin underneath, you'll end up feeling extremely dry. Lately, I've been using cushion foundation and BB cream. After applying my skincare and sunscreen, I dab a bit of oil on areas prone to dead skin cells and wrinkles before applying BB cream. However, after some time, I notice flaking. Even with the addition of oil, I still feel dry. It seems the dryness is coming from within, not just the surface. My skin tends to heat up easily, and once it starts drying out, it just gets worse and worse. I don't think this cream can provide the deep hydration needed to combat inner dryness. Also, the fragrance is disappointingly strong with an overpowering citrus scent.

Price and quantity: Great value for the amount. At 15,500 won without any concerning ingredients, I think it's an excellent price. The quantity is generous, likely lasting about two months. 2. Application: It applies very smoothly. Despite its balm-like texture, it absorbs naturally when patted in, leaving the skin feeling soft and supple. 3. Scent: As someone sensitive to fragrances, I appreciate that this product isn't overpowering. It has a subtle lemony scent that isn't off-putting. 4. Blemishes: I initially developed a large pimple near my mouth when I first used it, but it improved with continued use. This aspect needs further observation.
Cons1. Packaging: It's not in a tube, which raises some hygiene concerns. Without a spatula, I had to use my hands after cleansing, which I feel is less hygienic than a tube format. 2. Dryness: As someone with combination dehydrated skin in summer and dry skin in winter, I found my face feeling quite tight after using this product. As a result, I apply my usual moisturizer on top of it.
TipFor those with dry skin, it's beneficial to layer a richer cream on top!

It has a pleasant scent and feels moisturizing upon initial application.
ConsAs time passes, it becomes increasingly drying and fails to address deep dryness. I used it twice before giving it to my sibling. It does feel moisturizing right after application though!
TipApplying a generous amount before bed does leave the skin feeling moisturized, but it doesn't tackle the deep dryness.

When I first opened the packaging, the green case gave me a really healthy vibe, so I had high expectations! The texture itself isn't runny, but rather applies with a slightly rich consistency. The scent isn't particularly fragrant, but it's a pleasant aroma that most people won't find off-putting. I have extremely dry skin, so I'm not sure if it's just me, but after applying it, I felt like my skin was well-moisturized without any tightness. However, like other creams, it did end up making my skin feel tight. On the bright side, I didn't experience any blemishes after using it! I'd recommend those with sensitive skin, who aren't too dry, to give it a light try! What I loved most about using this product was the generous amount - it felt like a truly full-sized product. The texture didn't run or feel sticky, which I appreciated the most.
ConsI wouldn't recommend this to people with dry skin! I was selected as a Hwahae Tester and used it consistently, but for a week, my skin felt so dry and tight I thought I was going to die. Even if I applied a lot before makeup and let it absorb fully, my skin still felt dry during the day.
TipIt's not great as a substitute for cream. Applying more doesn't make a difference, so just use a moderate amount.

My skin type is dry, with some small blemishes on my forehead, and I have thin skin. - Volume: 60ml - Ingredients: I gave it extra points before even receiving it because it doesn't contain any concerning ingredients! After using it, I didn't experience any blemishes or redness, which really proves that products without concerning ingredients are indeed better! It made me appreciate this aspect once again. - Application: It has a nice bouncy texture that applies smoothly and feels moisturizing. - Absorption: Wow... When I first applied it, it had a bit of a glow that made me wonder if it was too oily and if it would absorb well. But after about 30 minutes, it was fully absorbed! However... whether it's truly absorbed or if the moisture evaporates quickly... I'll discuss this point further in the cons section. - Packaging: The packaging really gives off a green tea vibe and looks clean. It's easy to open! Plus, there's a thin protective layer under the lid, which makes it more hygienic. Good! - Recommended skin type: Dry (for extremely dry skin, I think it would be best to use this along with a hydrating moisturizer)
Cons- Absorption: Regarding the absorption I mentioned... in my experience, it felt like the moisture was evaporating rather than being replenished. I'm not sure if it absorbs too quickly or if it's evaporating, but it didn't seem to solve deep dryness very well. However, since skincare products often need time to show their full effects, I plan to keep using it consistently. - Packaging: When I first opened it, I was really pleased to see how generously filled it was! But... I accidentally dropped it on the floor and the product separated, revealing that there's a smaller round container inside the larger one, and only that inner container was full. I was a bit disappointed after initially thinking the amount was great for the price. - Scent: It has a slightly artificial fragrance, which is a bit disappointing. - Other: It's a shame that it doesn't come with a spatula!
Tip- Because it's good at locking in moisture, rather than using it alone, it might be better to apply a hydrating moisturizer first and then use this product to create a protective layer that prevents moisture loss. - When I applied a bit of this product as the final step of my skincare routine before foundation, my makeup looked more hydrated and lasted longer than usual!
